Fighting a private parking charge

Excellent service throughout from start to finish fighting a private parking charge. Harriet dealt with all the paperwork and advised and kept me up to date with the process and Jackson Yamba really went the extra mile travelling from Leeds to Birmingham to represent me at both court hearings, he was extremely knowledgeable and won my case for me whilst putting me at ease throughout the stressful process. I cant recommend them highly enough.

Absolutely amazing service from start to finish

Absolutely amazing service from start to finish. Harriet took the reins and dealt with our case until the parking company backed out. Amazing value for money for the one off fee. Would use again in a heartbeat and will reccomend to all. Thankyou Harriet and the team. Kind Regards, Luqman Ali

This is the third time that I had the pleasure of engaging with Contestor Legal Services for a complex legal matter, 3 Penalty Charges and I must say, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. At the forefront of this outstanding service was Mr. Jackson Yamba, whose expertise and professionalism truly set a new standard for legal representation.

From the onset, Mr. Yamba demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal intricacies of my case. His approach was not only thorough but also tailored to meet my specific needs. He took the time to explain complex legal jargon in layman's terms, ensuring that I was fully informed and comfortable with each step of the process.

What really stood out was Mr. Yamba's commitment to my case. He was consistently proactive, keeping me updated with developments and always available to answer any questions I had.
In terms of results, Mr. Yamba and Contestor Legal Services exceeded my expectations. Not only did they provide top-notch legal advice, but they also showed genuine care and empathy towards my situation. It's rare to find a legal team that combines such high levels of professionalism with a personal touch.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Jackson Yamba and Contestor Legal Services to anyone seeking legal assistance. Their expertise, dedication, and client-centered approach truly make them stand out in the legal field. Thank you, Mr. Yamba and the Contestor team, for your exceptional service!

Lost, expensive and no communication

Lost the appeal. I only found out when I emailed them. It's more money if you want them to "take it further". I hadn't realised I'd only paid them for one service, I thought I'd paid them to get the ticket cancelled, if it couldn't be cancelled why take my money? I'll leave you to answer that question yourself. Just pay the ticket at the discount, its cheaper.

Cannot recommend Jackson and his team enough. I had been battling an insurance issue for months. Going and back and forth with my previous car insurer about a claim they were trying to recover funds from me. Jackson attend court and drafted letters. The case was eventually dropped. Honestly without Jackson I wouldn't have won. Thanks again and I definitely use them again. 100% recommended!

Won 4 Private parking PCNs

My residential Parking company issued me 4 unjustified PCN and took me the small claims court. Contestor Legal Services represented me to successfully defended all these claims and guided me throughout the legal process and court proceedings. Highly recommend as their services are very affordable.

Highly recommended

Thanks to Contestor Legal Services, the claimant (DCBL on behalf of UKPC) - dropped their claim a couple of weeks before the scheduled court hearing. CLS was excellent value for money - you just have to look out for their emails and follow their instructions. Communication could have been a little better on occasion, but overall I highly recommend this company.

Myself v UKPC & DCBL

I had been fighting a parking fine received at my place of work even though my permit was on display and in my allocated parking space. UKPC had been chasing me but refused to acknowledge-my appeal. Move forward 5 years and DCBL started to chase. I although I responded to every single letter from them stating I was correctly parked and sending pics of my permit, they decided to take me to court. I contacted contestor legal services and was assigned Charlotte to my case. I was so anxious and stressed as I cant speak in public. She was brilliant from my first contact. She completed each document at every step and drafted up my defence. 2 weeks to go and DCBL on behalf of UKPC decided to withdraw their claim. I can’t state how relieved I am. I am so grateful to Charlotte and I will and do recommend Contestor Legal to anyone who needs support to fight these awful car park fines
